The University of Vermont’s Pre-College program helps high school students gain a head start on their college journey. Earning college credits and exploring subjects beyond the typical high school curriculum are a big advantage for building a strong college application. Plus, high school students receive a 50% in-state/out-of-state academic year tuition savings.
“One of the benefits of UVM’s Pre-College program is that both in-state and out-of-state, high school students can receive 50% tuition reduction, which means that your classes will be a lot less expensive than they will be once you get onto campus. Another great aspect is you can start exploring things that you want to major in when you get on campus, and this can really help when you’re trying to decide what major you want to put down on all your applications –and make that process a whole lot less scary.”
